I came into this program as an experienced coach, not a newcomer. I wasn't looking for basic tools — I was looking for the research and understanding behind tools I already use, and that's exactly what I found. Dr. Salinas is the difference maker. His insight, experience, and generosity with both are extraordinary. He doesn't just teach positive psychology — he illuminates why it works. That deeper understanding changes how I will hold these concepts with clients. It's the difference between knowing a tool and trusting it. I find that, for me, this program integrates well into my existing coaching practice. The science behind strengths, resilience, and well-being now sits underneath my work in a way that will directly benefit my clients — more precision, more depth, more impact, more clarity. If you're new to coaching, this is a great place to start. If you're already coaching and wondering whether this adds real value — it does. Not by replacing what you know, but by making it better.

The content and material are very well structured and thorough. . The dynamics of the class, emphasizing practice and implementation and evaluation course work through triads (coaches, coach, observer) was most effective. All this facilitated via excellent use of distance education technologies that allowed smooth and consistent interactions. Dr. Salinas was most generous with his attention, time and knowledge. I complete the course feeling I am prepared to initiate my journey as a Coach Positive in Positive Psychology, and that I have the tools and network to continue studying, learning and growing in the process.

I had a very positive experience completing my certification with the PPI Institute. The program offers highly valuable, well-structured content that is applicable both professionally and personally. The methodology combines theory, practice, feedback, and reflection in a very enriching way, truly allowing participants to integrate coaching and positive psychology tools into real-life scenarios. In addition, I believe this certification has a modern and in-depth approach that is well aligned with today’s needs in human development and conscious leadership. Without a doubt, I highly recommend the PPI Institute to anyone seeking serious, professional, and transformational training.
